"My parents are really sick, ruining my work is like sentencing them to death! Chen Hansui, when you were at school, you would cry at the sight of a dead cat or dog. You wouldn't be so cruel as to watch my whole family die, would you!" Yuan Youyou spoke through her tears.
Suizi's gaze fell on the large willow tree by the road.
It had snowed last night, and frost was layered on the branches. Yuan Youyou's loud cries seemed to shake a withered leaf loose, which fell onto her hair.
Suizi reached out her hand, her long fingers pinching the withered leaf, her movements gentle and her voice soft.
"I still cry when I see dead cats and dogs."
With teary eyes, Yuan Youyou pitifully looked at Suizi, clutching onto her last glimmer of hope.
"You'll forgive me, right?"
"No, I won't forgive you. But after you pay the price, I might shed a few tears for your family who raised such a waste."
Yuan Youyou didn't quite understand Suizi's meaning, and stared at her in astonishment.
